From the handbook
5.2.1 Integrated Formative Assessment (Trimester 2) - taken from the Course Handbook 2022-2023
The first integrated assessment is held in the end of the second trimester. Passing this integrated formative assessment allows the ECTS for the first two terms to be awarded.
At this juncture you are expected to prepare presentation of the work and self-directed research you have undertaken in the context of the thematic seminars and around them, and discuss with a team of tutors what you have learned, and how you might steer the next phase of your studies.
In other words, we would like you to show us the purpose, the methods and the outputs of the research you have been undertaking in your first two terms at PZI. We want to see primarily the work you have been undertaking as your self-directed research, but we are also interested in how you have engaged with -- and what you have taken from -- the PROTOTYPING seminars and the SPECIAL ISSUES, as well as methods you have developed in your READING WRITING & RESEARCH METHODS seminar.
You are required to make a presentation with visual support: please show us concrete examples of the work and bring any drafts, and prototypes you have developed, as well as describing your research thinking and procedures. We want to know what you are making, how you are making it, and why you are making it.
Prior to the assessment process you must archive documentation and elements of the work and research you wish to submit for examination. We will not pass people who have not delivered appropriate documentation of their work on time. See http://pzwiki.wdka.nl/mediadesign/Archive_Protocol for archiving instructions.
This integrated assessment is a moment for not only staff to assess where you are, but also an opportunity for you to reflect on what you have done so far. In other words, it is intended as a moment to take stock in terms what you have done, and elaborate on further developing interests (both conceptually and technically). Crucial to this assessment is your capacity not just to show your successful projects, but your ability to reflect on points of improvement - in other words, the ability to talk about your failed experiments, and what you have learned from them, is just as important as speaking about what worked and why.
